From: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit bbe051c841d522bf2aaa1d362b57fe47457187bf ] There's a bit of a loophole in norecovery mount handling right now: an initial mount must be readonly, but nothing prevents a mount -o remount,rw from producing a writable, unrecovered xfs filesystem. It might be possible to try to perform a log recovery when this is requested, but I'm not sure it's worth the effort. For now, simply disallow this sort of transition.
